Wrath Unbound

Comments drummer Tobias Gustafsson, "'Wrath Unbound’ is inspired by dark powers and built for headbanging! This is probably the heaviest song on the album. The catchy melody combined with lots of double bass drums will roll over you like a tank. Musically it's influenced by British giants like Iron Maiden, Bolt Thrower, and Carcass. Lyrically, I don't really know where [vocalist/bassist] Erik [Rundqvist] found the inspiration. Probably somewhere far, far away...”

Director: Marcus Svensson

The band didn't miss a beat in getting back to writing. According to drummer Tobias Gustafsson, while the unmistakable Vomitory sound remains, the new album cranks up the intensity. "In Death Throes picks up where All Heads Are Gonna Roll left off, but we've turned the intensity up a notch. Christian quickly found his place and even contributed music to four killer tracks. These additions bring a bit of diversity to our sound without straying too far from the formula."

The songwriting process began in the summer of 2024 with Tobias and bassist Erik Rundqvist riffing away over beers. The first fruit of their labor was "Two and a Half Men," followed by the album opener, "Rapture in Rupture." From there, the band worked together closely, with each member contributing to the arrangements and fine-tuning the tracks in the rehearsal space before finalizing them. Lyrically, Erik once again brought his trademark gore, but with some fresh, more contemporary twists on In Death Throes.

Recording took place across multiple studios in late 2025. Drums and vocals were recorded at Leon Music Studios in Karlstad, Sweden, with producer Rikard Löfgren (who had previously worked on Terrorize Brutalize Sodomize, Carnage Euphoria and Opus Mortis VIII) handling the engineering. Guitars and bass were tracked at Goff Studios in Karlstad, with Christian Fredriksson taking the reins as the engineer. For mixing and mastering, the band once again turned to Lawrence Mackrory (Paradise Lost, Bloodbath, Lik) at Rorysound Studios in Uppsala, Sweden, who delivered a crushing, heavy sound that still manages to breathe.

As with "All Heads Are Gonna Roll," the album artwork was handled by Giannis Nakos of Remedy Art Design, while Seiya Ogino of Ogino Design handled the layout. The result is an album that's as ferocious as it is visually stunning.

LYRICS:
Born of stars, forged in flame
I carve my name in the shadows
Only power as the weak ones die
Darkness beckons from afar

Through domination of the force, I rise
A wraith in black beneath dying skies
No peace, no light, no final breath
Only rage, betrayal, death

Passion, strength, domination, emotion, chaos, annihilation

I bled the saber, I shattered souls
Consumed by hate, I lost control
Voices whispers from the void
A thousand stars, all destroyed

Passion, strength, domination, emotion, chaos, annihilation

Cut me down, I rise unbound, I walk the path of unholy might
The power shall break all chains, and I shall forever reign
Lust, fury, dominance, the power shall set me free
